“Being from a very traditional Chinese-American family, my parents believed the only options to have a successful life were to be a doctor, a lawyer, an engineer or a business person.”

“When I say that I'm a businessperson and a dressmaker, it's the truth. I run a business, and I make dresses, I make blouses.”

“I think my parents were immigrants, you know, so I guess I would be first generation. Growing up in California.”

“When the BBC decided to bring Doctor Who back as a feature film a few years ago, one national newspaper ran a poll to ask its readers who should be the new Doctor, and I topped it.”

“That's what the 'Doctor' is about, essentially - having that energy that you just can't understand.”

“My father was a doctor. I've never been very warm towards doctors.”
